      <title>Jubilee General launches Resilience Reward Program to advance risk prevention and business resilience</title>
      <link>https://images.dawn.com/news/1195900/jubilee-general-launches-resilience-reward-program-to-advance-risk-prevention-and-business-resilience</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Jubilee General Insurance Co. Ltd. (JGI) has launched the &lt;strong&gt;Resilience Rewards Program&lt;/strong&gt;, a pioneering initiative designed to recognise long-standing, risk-resilient clients for their continued commitment to safety, risk mitigation and business resilience.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The program reflects Jubilee General’s role as a trusted risk partner—working with businesses not only when a loss occurs, but also supporting them engineer safety, prevent losses and reduce the impact of potential disruptions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Through the initiative, clients qualifying for the reward will be recognised for maintaining strong risk standards and consistently implementing measures focused on protecting the most valuable human resources, fire safety, machinery protection and strengthening resilience against Natural Catastrophe (NatCat) events.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The selection criteria is based on each organisation’s proven track record of resilience and consistent adoption of risk improvement recommendations provided by Jubilee General’s Risk Management team over the years.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--    media--uneven  media--stretch' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/09/24145036250be5f.webp'&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“As Insurers we need to view investments in strengthening resilience not merely as a service to customers, but as a strategic tool for business continuity and long-term sustainability.” said Azfar Arshad, Managing Director &amp;amp; CEO of Jubilee General Insurance Co. Ltd.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He added, “By supporting clients in investing in risk prevention, mitigation and resilience, we help businesses reduce the frequency and severity of losses and simultaneously protect our balance sheet.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jubilee General’s dedicated Risk Management Department comprises qualified engineers specialising in safety and fire protection. The team conducts comprehensive risk surveys to identify inherent and residual risks across clients’ facilities and provides recommendations tailored to their respective operations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Through its continued engagement with clients, the Risk Management team supports the effective implementation of risk improvement measures and helps organisations strengthen their risk mitigation and resilience strategies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Resilience Rewards Program reinforces Jubilee General’s prevention-first approach to insurance, bringing together engineering expertise, trusted partnerships and proactive risk management to help businesses become safer, better prepared and more resilient.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Inside Eminent: Karachi’s new house of fashion and lifestyle that’s worth the buzz</title>
      <link>https://images.dawn.com/news/1194959/inside-eminent-karachis-new-house-of-fashion-and-lifestyle-thats-worth-the-buzz</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;When Eminent opened its flagship store next to Lucky One Mall last week, the buzz was impossible to ignore. Social media was filled with glimpses of the glamorous launch night, fashion insiders were discussing it and the phrase “house of fashion” along with &lt;a href="/trends/BeYou"&gt;#BeYou&lt;/a&gt; appeared everywhere.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What stood out most, however, was the brand’s message. Eminent is not simply selling products. It is promoting self confidence. Through its statement &lt;a href="/trends/BeYou"&gt;#BeYou&lt;/a&gt;, the brand encourages its audience to embrace who they truly are. It centres on feeling confident in what one wears, how one styles oneself and how one presents oneself to the world. Rather than conforming to expectations, it promotes showing up as one chooses. That philosophy adds a deeper layer to the entire shopping experience.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left    media--uneven  media--stretch' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104239752bb63.webp'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104239752bb63.webp'  alt='' /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Naturally, the store invited a closer look to see whether it truly lived up to both the hype and its &lt;a href="/trends/BeYou"&gt;#BeYou&lt;/a&gt; statement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A few days after the grand opening, a visit to the store confirmed that it exceeded expectations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="first-impressions-spacious-modern-inviting" href="#first-impressions-spacious-modern-inviting" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;First impressions: Spacious, modern, inviting&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first noticeable feature is the sense of space and thoughtful layout. The store is easy to access and difficult to miss. Inside, it does not feel overwhelming despite the extensive variety. Everything is neatly organised, allowing customers to move comfortably from one section to another.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is at this point that the scale becomes clear.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is not merely a clothing outlet. Eminent genuinely feels like a complete one stop fashion and lifestyle destination.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left    media--uneven  media--stretch' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/0210492011627e2.webp'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/0210492011627e2.webp'  alt='' /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="a-wardrobe-built-in-one-visit" href="#a-wardrobe-built-in-one-visit" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A wardrobe built in one visit&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What sets Eminent apart is its range. An entire wardrobe can be built in a single visit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Menswear is fully covered, from everyday basics to formal pieces. Womenswear is extensive, ranging from basic shalwar kameez suits to trend forward styles. Childrenswear is both stylish and practical. Undergarments are available. Shoes come in plentiful options. Fragrances and cosmetics are well stocked. Accessories range from subtle pieces to statement designs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is rare to find such a wide collection under one roof without it feeling disconnected. Here, everything feels cohesive.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="exploring-the-collections" href="#exploring-the-collections" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Exploring the collections&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The women’s section demonstrates impressive depth. Everyday wear sits comfortably alongside elevated pieces. Flowing fabrics, structured cuts and coordinated sets avoid repetition and instead feel thoughtfully curated.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/021042403f2b3f4.webp'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/021042403f2b3f4.webp'  alt='' /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The men’s section offers a balance of casual and polished pieces. There are wardrobe staples such as classic shirts, shalwar kameez suits, comfortable tees and versatile trousers, alongside more fashion forward options. It is easy to imagine building multiple outfits without repeating styles.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240f16b517.webp'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240f16b517.webp'  alt='' /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The children’s section adds further dimension. Rather than being confined to a small corner, it feels equally considered, offering fashionable yet comfortable options for younger shoppers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="beauty-shoes-and-the-finishing-touches" href="#beauty-shoes-and-the-finishing-touches" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Beauty, shoes and the finishing touches&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another highlight is the thoughtful arrangement throughout the store. After selecting outfits, customers can move towards the footwear section and find options that complement their choices. Close by are accessories including bags, belts, caps and jewellery.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240d73d2d9.webp'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240d73d2d9.webp'  alt='' /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The cosmetics section adds further depth. From make up accessories to products for eyes, lips, face and nails, everything is carefully stocked. Completing a full look without leaving the store is entirely possible. There is also a solid variety of scents and perfumes to enhance the final result.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It truly feels like a house of fashion, not simply because of the variety, but because of how seamlessly everything works together.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="trying-it-on-the-real-test" href="#trying-it-on-the-real-test" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Trying it on: The real test&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Browsing tells only part of the story. Trying on selected pieces reveals where Eminent truly impresses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fabrics feel soft, breathable and well constructed. Stitching is neat and precise and the finishing is clean and refined. The overall quality stands out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is particularly striking is how premium the garments appear once worn. The cuts are flattering, the fits are comfortable and the detailing provides a polished finish.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then comes the pricing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="premium-look-reasonable-pricing" href="#premium-look-reasonable-pricing" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Premium look, reasonable pricing&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Given the quality on display, one might expect steep prices. Instead, the pricing is reasonable. Eminent positions itself as accessible fashion offering strong value for money.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240b8611ff.webp'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240b8611ff.webp'  alt='' /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The garments look high end but are priced fairly. Customers are not paying inflated rates for appearance alone. They receive solid quality without stretching their budget.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the current retail climate, that balance feels refreshing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a id="does-it-live-up-to-the-hype" href="#does-it-live-up-to-the-hype" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Does it live up to the hype?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After exploring every section, the conclusion is clear. It does.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The excitement surrounding Eminent’s flagship store beside Lucky One Mall is not merely opening week enthusiasm. The variety is genuine. The quality is impressive. The pricing is sensible. The overall experience feels elevated without being intimidating.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For those who have heard the buzz but have not yet visited, it may be time. Eminent is not simply another new store in Karachi. It is a fashion and lifestyle destination that delivers on its promise.&lt;/p&gt;

<h2><a id="a-wardrobe-built-in-one-visit" href="#a-wardrobe-built-in-one-visit" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"></a><strong>A wardrobe built in one visit</strong></h2>
<p>What sets Eminent apart is its range. An entire wardrobe can be built in a single visit.</p>
<p>Menswear is fully covered, from everyday basics to formal pieces. Womenswear is extensive, ranging from basic shalwar kameez suits to trend forward styles. Childrenswear is both stylish and practical. Undergarments are available. Shoes come in plentiful options. Fragrances and cosmetics are well stocked. Accessories range from subtle pieces to statement designs.</p>
<p>It is rare to find such a wide collection under one roof without it feeling disconnected. Here, everything feels cohesive.</p>
<h2><a id="exploring-the-collections" href="#exploring-the-collections" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"></a><strong>Exploring the collections</strong></h2>
<p>The women’s section demonstrates impressive depth. Everyday wear sits comfortably alongside elevated pieces. Flowing fabrics, structured cuts and coordinated sets avoid repetition and instead feel thoughtfully curated.</p>
    <figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/021042403f2b3f4.webp'>
        <div class='media__item  '><picture><img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/021042403f2b3f4.webp'  alt='' /></picture></div>
        
    </figure>
<p>The men’s section offers a balance of casual and polished pieces. There are wardrobe staples such as classic shirts, shalwar kameez suits, comfortable tees and versatile trousers, alongside more fashion forward options. It is easy to imagine building multiple outfits without repeating styles.</p>
    <figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240f16b517.webp'>
        <div class='media__item  '><picture><img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240f16b517.webp'  alt='' /></picture></div>
        
    </figure>
<p>The children’s section adds further dimension. Rather than being confined to a small corner, it feels equally considered, offering fashionable yet comfortable options for younger shoppers.</p>
<h2><a id="beauty-shoes-and-the-finishing-touches" href="#beauty-shoes-and-the-finishing-touches" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"></a><strong>Beauty, shoes and the finishing touches</strong></h2>
<p>Another highlight is the thoughtful arrangement throughout the store. After selecting outfits, customers can move towards the footwear section and find options that complement their choices. Close by are accessories including bags, belts, caps and jewellery.</p>
    <figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240d73d2d9.webp'>
        <div class='media__item  '><picture><img src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240d73d2d9.webp'  alt='' /></picture></div>
        
    </figure>
<p>The cosmetics section adds further depth. From make up accessories to products for eyes, lips, face and nails, everything is carefully stocked. Completing a full look without leaving the store is entirely possible. There is also a solid variety of scents and perfumes to enhance the final result.</p>
<p>It truly feels like a house of fashion, not simply because of the variety, but because of how seamlessly everything works together.</p>
<h2><a id="trying-it-on-the-real-test" href="#trying-it-on-the-real-test" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"></a><strong>Trying it on: The real test</strong></h2>
<p>Browsing tells only part of the story. Trying on selected pieces reveals where Eminent truly impresses.</p>
<p>The fabrics feel soft, breathable and well constructed. Stitching is neat and precise and the finishing is clean and refined. The overall quality stands out.</p>
<p>What is particularly striking is how premium the garments appear once worn. The cuts are flattering, the fits are comfortable and the detailing provides a polished finish.</p>
<p>Then comes the pricing.</p>
<h2><a id="premium-look-reasonable-pricing" href="#premium-look-reasonable-pricing" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"></a><strong>Premium look, reasonable pricing</strong></h2>
<p>Given the quality on display, one might expect steep prices. Instead, the pricing is reasonable. Eminent positions itself as accessible fashion offering strong value for money.</p>
    <figure class='media  w-full  sm:w-full  media--left  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2026/03/02104240b8611ff.webp'>

    </figure>
<p>The garments look high end but are priced fairly. Customers are not paying inflated rates for appearance alone. They receive solid quality without stretching their budget.</p>
<p>In the current retail climate, that balance feels refreshing.</p>
<h2><a id="does-it-live-up-to-the-hype" href="#does-it-live-up-to-the-hype" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"></a><strong>Does it live up to the hype?</strong></h2>
<p>After exploring every section, the conclusion is clear. It does.</p>
<p>The excitement surrounding Eminent’s flagship store beside Lucky One Mall is not merely opening week enthusiasm. The variety is genuine. The quality is impressive. The pricing is sensible. The overall experience feels elevated without being intimidating.</p>
<p>For those who have heard the buzz but have not yet visited, it may be time. Eminent is not simply another new store in Karachi. It is a fashion and lifestyle destination that delivers on its promise.</p>

      <title>Cadbury Dairy Milk Pakistan leads the way with first-of-its-kind Made to Share Creator Camp</title>
      <link>https://images.dawn.com/news/1194342/cadbury-dairy-milk-pakistan-leads-the-way-with-first-of-its-kind-made-to-share-creator-camp</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Cadbury Dairy Milk Pakistan, in collaboration with Ogilvy Pakistan’s PR&amp;amp;I division, has hosted the country’s first-ever brand-led Creator Camp, setting a new benchmark for authentic brand-creator partnerships. The immersive event, held on Oct 15  in Karachi, brought together 27 prominent content creators from TikTok and Instagram, including Romaisa Khan, Reham Rafiq, Aina Asif, Ken Doll, Arzu Fatima, Taimoor Akbar and Ali Abdullah Durrani, to co-create and align with the brand’s Made to Share campaign.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Blending creativity with generosity at its heart, the initiative positioned creators not merely as campaign amplifiers but as genuine collaborators. Each participant contributed their unique voice, audience insight and storytelling style to shape a collective vision of Cadbury Dairy Milk’s philosophy of sharing and kindness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  sm:w-full  w-full  media--stretch  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2025/11/0115170854f8835.webp'&gt;

        &lt;figcaption class='media__caption  '&gt;The campaign brings people together through a limited-edition range of Dairy Milk bars.&lt;/figcaption&gt;
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Made to Share campaign celebrates small gestures that bring people together through a limited-edition range of playfully redesigned Dairy Milk bars. Each bar features witty chunk divisions such as ‘who makes the food (&lt;em&gt;jo khana banaye&lt;/em&gt;), who sets the table ( &lt;em&gt;jo table lagaye&lt;/em&gt;), who just eats (&lt;em&gt;jo sirf khaye&lt;/em&gt;), who makes the chai (&lt;em&gt;jo chai banaye&lt;/em&gt;)’ and ‘who brings the gossip (jo gossip laye)’ sparking light-hearted connection and conversation in everyday life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  sm:w-full  w-full  media--stretch  ' data-original-src='https://i.dawn.com/large/2025/11/01134504dc8d94b.webp'&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Speaking about the initiative, the Head of Marketing at Mondelēz Pakistan, Syed Gohar Hasan Naqvi, said: “The Creator Camp reflects a fundamental shift in how we approach collaborations. Instead of viewing creators as just amplifiers at the end of a campaign, we see them as true partners from the very beginning. By working collaboratively, we can tell stories that feel real, resonate deeply and spark a wave of Cadbury generosity.”&lt;/p&gt;

      <link>https://images.dawn.com/news/1193515/ideas-cafe-karachis-new-spot-for-coffee-comfort-and-style</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Karachi’s café culture is full of energy, with new spots popping up all the time. But every now and then, a place opens that does more than just serve coffee – it leaves an impression. Ideas Cafe, located at Dolmen Mall Clifton, is one of those places.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This stylish new cafe blends tasteful interiors with a diverse, feel-good menu. Whether you’re visiting with family, catching up with a friend or just flying solo with your laptop, this space has something for everyone. And while it’s currently welcoming guests at its Dolmen Mall location, it won’t be long before Ideas Cafe opens across all Ideas outlets in Pakistan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A fresh face among cafes in Karachi&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There’s no shortage of best cafes in Karachi, but what makes Ideas Cafe stand out from the rest is its atmosphere. From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice the thoughtful design. Soft lighting, greenery and a neutral colour palette come together to create a relaxed, modern vibe.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This Karachi cafe is the kind of place where you can stay a while – whether you’re settling into a quiet work session or meeting a group of friends. The layout is spacious without feeling empty, and yes, there are plenty of charging sockets if you’re planning to get some work done. From intimate tables to larger setups for groups, it’s designed to be versatile and comfortable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Something for every craving&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Food is at the heart of Ideas Cafe. The menu is varied, flavourful and caters to different moods – whether you’re in the mood for something hearty, something light or something sweet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Salads&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  sm:w-full  w-full  media--stretch    media--uneven  media--stretch'&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Baked in a stone oven, these pizzas come out just right – crisp edges and gooey centres. From the classic Margherita to gourmet options like steak and mushroom or shrimp pesto, every slice hits the spot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Pastas&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pasta lovers will feel right at home. The creamy Fettuccine Alfredo is a crowd favourite, while the Spaghetti Bolognese and seasonal seafood linguine offer rich, comforting flavours.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sandwiches and burgers&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you’re after something more filling, the Ideas Karachi café’s selection of club sandwiches and burgers is well worth exploring. Think juicy beef patties, tender chicken, fresh toppings and generous portions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Desserts&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This might be the hardest section to choose from. The vanilla panna cotta is silky smooth, the caramelised banana bread is warm and gooey, and the apple crostata is buttery with the perfect crunch – all served with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Hot and cold beverages&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
